Number system
Our decimal number system is known as a positional number system, because the value of the number depends on the position of the digits. For example, the number 123 has a very different value than the number 321, although the same digits are used in both numbers.
Binary (base 2) The number system is used directly in the computer Hexadecimal (base 16) The number system that is used by computer to communicate with programmers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E
Octal (base 8)
The number system that is used by either human or communicate with programmers Decimal (base 10) The number system that we are using
Binary Numbers
The word Binary actually come from the Latin word bini, and means "two". Most modern computer systems operate using binary logic Binary digits are most often referred to as bits, short for "binary digits." The binary number system has exactly two symbols (0,1). Simply put, a binary number is just a series of bits such as: 010110

Binary Numbers
Subscripts for binary numbers In order to distinguish between the binary number system and other number systems such as decimal, octal, or hexadecimal, we use a subscript of either 2 or B on binary numbers. 101102 = 10110B
Hexadecimal Numbers
Hexadecimal may be considered "shorthand" for binary numbers. Each hexadecimal digit may be represented by four binary bits.
Hexadecimal Numbers

Hexadecimal Numbers
Example A: Convert A67B2H to binary. Given a hexadecimal number such a A67B2 each of the five digits may be translated into four binary digits as follows: A67B2H = 1010 0110 0111 1011 0010B = A 6 7 B 2

Number Types
The first type of number is the first type you ever learned about are the counting, or "natural" numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ... whole numbers are the natural numbers together with zero: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ... Integers are zero, the natural numbers, and the negatives of the naturals: ..., 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ..

Number Types
The rational numbers are the set of numbers of the form a/b where a and b are integers. The irrational numbers are all real numbers that are not rational. The decimal form of an irrational number goes on and on forever without repeating or terminating.

Number Types
Rational", or fractional, numbers, are technically regarded as ratios (divisions) of integers. a fraction is formed by dividing one integer by another integer. Fractions (also known as rational numbers) can be written as terminating (ending) or repeating decimals (such as 0.5, 0.76, or 0.333333....). On the other hand, all those numbers that can be written as non-repeating, non-terminating decimals are non-rational, so they are called the "irrationals". Examples would be sqrt(2) ("the square root of two"). The rationals and the irrationals are two totally separate number types; there is no overlap.

Inequalities
Inequalities consist of two or more algebraic expressions joined by inequality symbols. The inequality symbols are : <less than >greater than <=less than or equal to >=greater than or equal to <>not equal to

Prime Numbers
In mathematics, a prime number (or a prime) is a natural number which has exactly two distinct natural number divisors: 1 and itself. The first thirty prime numbers are: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97, 101, 103, 107, 109, 113

Prime Numbers
The property of being a prime is called primality. Since two is the only even prime number, the term odd prime refers to any prime number greater than two.

Factors
Common Factors (Common Divisor) A number that divides two or more given numbers exactly e.g. the numbers 20, 70 and 80 have 2, 5 and 10 as common factors. HCF (Highest Common Factor) The largest number that is a common factor of the given numbers is the highest common factor (or Greatest Common Divisor). In the case above 10 is the HCF.
22
Multiples
Multiples A number that is the product of a given number e.g. 6 is a multiple of 2. Common Multiple A number that is a multiple of two or more other numbers. The lowest number that is a multiple of a given set of numbers is their least common multiple (LCM). E.g. 3, 9 and 11 have a LCM of 99 (i.e. 99 is the smallest number that all three of the given numbers will divide exactly).

Percentage
In mathematics, a percentage is a way of expressing a number as a fraction of 100 (per cent meaning "per hundred"). It is often denoted using the percent sign, "%". For example, 45% (read as "forty-five percent") is equal to 45 / 100, or 0.45. Percentages are used to express how large one quantity is relative to another quantity. The first quantity usually represents a part of, or a change in, the second quantity. For example, an increase of $ 0.15 on a price of $ 2.50 is an increase by a fraction of 0.15 / 2.50 = 0.06.
34
Percentage continued..
When speaking of a "10% rise" or a "10% fall" in a quantity this is relative to the initial value of that quantity. For example, if an item is initially priced at $200 and the price rises 10% (an increase of $20), the new price will be $220. Note that this final price is 110% of the initial price (100% + 10% = 110%).
35
Important Tips
The fundamental concept to remember when performing calculations with percentages is that the percent symbol can be treated as being equivalent to the pure number constant 1 / 100 = 0.01. For example, 35% of 300 can be written as 35(0.01)(300) = 105. To find the percentage of a single unit in the whole, divide 100 by the whole. For instance, if you have 1250 apples, and you want to find out what percentage of the 1250 apples a single apple represents, 100 / 1250 would provide the answer of 0.08%. To calculate a percentage of a percentage, convert both percentages to fractions of 100, or to decimals, and multiply them. For example, 50% of 40% is:
(50 / 100)(40 / 100) = (0.50)(0.40) = 0.20 = 20%.
36
Important Tips
To increase a number by a % Multiply the number by the factor (1 + a%) To decrease a number by a % Multiply the nuumber by the factor (1 a%) To find the increase or decrease in number Multiply (Total inc or dec/Initial value) by 100
37
So to write aAmity School of Business percentage as a fraction, you simply put it over 100 like this:
24% = 24/100
Yes, but remember to try to write the fraction in its simplest terms
24% = 24/100
12/50
6/25
38
Conversion
To convert a fraction to a decimal divide the numerator of the fraction by the denominator. All rational numbers will yield a decimal that either terminates or repeats indefinitely. To convert a decimal to a fraction remove the decimal point from the number and make it the numerator of the fraction. The denominator will be the power of ten corresponding to the last place value of the decimal (0.1 is tenths, .01 is hundredths, etc)

To determine the speed if Distance (d) and Time (t) are given, use the following formula. Speed equals distance divided by time: s = d / t. Distance travelled by an object moving at a constant speed is the product of the speed and the time travelled. d=sXt To find the time traveled for given d and s, use the formula below. t=d/s

Relative speed
Two travellers begin their trip from the same point at the same time in opposite direction the formula for this situation is: d = s1 X t + s2 X t Two travellers begin their trip from the same point at the same time in the same direction the formula for this situation is: d = s1 X t - s2 X t
45
Two travellers start their trip from two distant points at the same time and travel toward each other the formula for this situation is: d = D - s1 X t s2 X t Note that at the end of n hours their distance is 0. This means the two travellers will meet each other at that time.

If the speed changes in the ratio m :n then the ratio of time taken changes by n : m If a distance D is covered once with A km/hr and again by B km/hr then
